"And as I sat there brooding on the old, unkwown world, I thought of Gatsby's wonder when he first picked out the green light at the end of Daisy's dock. He had come a long way to this blue lawn, and his dream must have seemed so close that he could hardly fail to grasp it. He did not know that it was already behind him, somewhere back in that vast obscurity beyond the city, where the dark fields of the republic rolled on under the night." (Fitzgerald, p. 180)
"Over the ashheaps the giant eyes of Doctor T.J. Eckleburg kept their vigil, but I percieved, after a moment, that other eyes were regarding us with peculiar intensity less than twenty feet away." (Fitzgerald, p. 124)
